Hello,

I need to be able to configure the speed and duplex of the BF537 ethernet port.

I have seen that it is possible in linux-2.6.x/drivers/net/bfin_mac.c

But then when I try to use ethtool I get nothing:

root:/> ethtool eth0

Settings for eth0:

No data available.

What is the right way of setting up the MAC parameters ?

Thank you,

Laurent

ethtool and the bfin_mac is not supported in 2008R1.5.  we've added support for many ethtool functions to the bfin_mac driver in 2009R1.
